Canning Tomatoes (Waterbath) - How To

**2015 UPDATE: When this post was originally created, I was using a steamer for this tutorial.  Since then the FDA has deemed steamers unfit for healthy canning practices, since the necessary internal temperature for killing bacteria and microorganisms is harder to regulate in a steam canner.  Please be advised that you should use a hot water bath canner.

This is a very easy and simple recipe for canning tomatoes.  Because I am using a water bath canner, I will not be adding any vegetables.  Still, these are a very helpful addition to my pantry.
